    Visual Studio magazine[^]:

    There's no doubt about it: The top ask of Visual Studio users is to run the IDE on the Linux OS.

    They need a good text editor after all

      IDEs available on Linux are a hellscape of broken components and severely outdated UX.

        Oh For :elephant:s Sake! Is maintaining a consistent narrative for the entire length of a single article (never mind an entire publication), now too much work to be bothered with. At the start of that embarrassment, the author notes that VS for Mac is just a rebadged version of the Xamarin tools having nothing in common with VS (for Windows) except the name and then goes on about how VS being legacy code full of Windows native tech at every level is effectively impossible to port to a different OS. Then at the end they point to VS for Mac as proof that none of those limitations actually matter.
